The LCD screen(some models) displays Leak Detected. The Owner’sManual or Use & Care book advises the consumer tocall for service. If water is detected in an idle state(no cycle running), then the dishwasher will indicateLeak Detected and will not start.A 5 VDC signal is sent to the moisture sensor. Ifenough water leaks into the pan it will short acrossthe sensor probes, returning 5 VDC back to thecontrol. This will alert the consumer of a leak.The fault may reset if no water is detected. Itis possible for the water to evaporate and thedishwasher would restart with no water detected.Only active faults are displayed on the control.If the consumer tries to restart the dishwasher withwater still detected, the dishwasher will not restart.A physical inspection should be completed todetermine the source of the leak, with repairsperformed as needed. The moisture sensor mayhave to be cleaned and dried, by wiping it with asoft cloth.Rinse Aid SensorThis sensor works the same as a turbidity sensor,~ 1 VDC is sent to an LED inside the rinse tank, the“photo sensor” sends a signal back to the control. .5 - 2 VDC signal indicates a level below 20 ML.Three consecutive "low" readings are needed totrigger a low reading. 3 – 5 VDC signal indicates a 20 ML to full level. Sensing is activated by the door closing. Sensing cycle is ~ 50 seconds long. Control will indicate full after one full reading.7RWXUQLQGLFDWRURȺSUHVVWKH3UH6RDNRU6WHDPbutton (depending on model) seven times within 5seconds. Repeat this process to turn the Low RinseAid indicator back on.Diagnosing Rinse Aid SensorOpen the door for one minute, then close the doorto initiate the rinse sensor sensing mode.LED Operation: Check for ~1 VDC green/black –tan/white (pin 1 and pin 3).Sensor Operation: .5 - 5 VDC from blue/red – tan/white (pin 2 and pin 3). ~ .5 – 2 VDC would indicate a low or emptyreading. ~ 3 - 5 VDC would indicate full or mostly fullreading.NOTES:Voltages may be checked for 50 secondsimmediately after the door is closed. False readingsmay occur if the door is not opened to 90° and notleft in this position for 1 minute.Floor Protect PanConnectorFloor Protect PanSensor
